Question
I have a Jack Russell and she is pregnant by another breed of dog. she is pure bread, I have a male Jack Russell that's older I was trying to wait to breed her with him but shes only 9 months old and my Chihuahua got her will it mess with the blood line when i go to breed her with a Jack Russell later in her life?

Answer
Hi Mary,
No it won't mess up any future litters.
Each litter is unique unto itself. No Chihuahua genes will stay inside of your Jack whatsoever. Once those pups are born, any trace of Chihuahua will be gone.
Good luck with your baby having babies.... that's such a shame the Chihuahua was able to get to her, it's so very young to be having pups. Best of luck.
